I bet... Your exhaust is the sexiest I have ever heard, Hameed. The sound when you did the driveby at the end of the vid was oh-so sweet. Now THAT's the sound of pure adrenaline right there. I can't WAIT to hear it in person. We hope to entice you to a NELOC meet sometime this summer...and if nothing else, we'll see you at Lexfest, I hope.

I remember on the IS Ltuned exhaust they were made by Borla, I wonder if this holds true to the GS?

HKS Hiper, but it is just an axle back..
I am thinking to change it to full catback now, but if I come across a JP TypeII, that will be my choice!!

I have stock for now. I want something with a nice tone to it, but nothing loud. I was considering tanabe or greddy because I know both are quiet. My all time favorite is junction produce but its hard to find and $$.

Get the RMM, apparently it's not loud enough for most members even though everytime I'm coming down the street people turn to look back before I'm even close, and it's a pretty good looking exhaust but you would have to get an aftermarket rear bumper because the tips stick out quite a bit. It's also pretty rare as there are only 4 of us with this exhaust.

After searching tons of threads here, Youtube and googling I went with the Tanabe Medallion Touring which looks the best and not too loud.

Hey guys, '01 GS430 here, I'm planning on ordering an exhaust soon but I want to get one that would sound good with the SRT Intake. The SRT already has a deep throaty sound and I'd like an exhaust (full cat-back) that would match it nicely without droning ... Any suggestions?

O by the way I'm also planning on getting the S&S Headers sometime in the future ... I've heard the sound nice with the Tanabe Medallion Touring ...

That's probably the one you should go with.
